FSLR is holding an analyst/investor meeting next Wednesday,so I suspect the stock will not experience much more downside in thenext week (not without some new bad news anyway). Look for FSLR toreassure investors that falling prices in polysilicon are not impactingits business. I will be very interested to find out how much financingFSLR is extending to its customer base.

In related news, each one of the short-term (speculative) solar trades I noted yesterdayblew up in spectacular fashion: Ja Solar Holdings (JASO), LDK Solar(LDK), Suntech Power (STP), and Yingli Green Energy Holdings (YGE). Iguess every solar trader saw the same encouraging short-term technicalsigns that I did and rushed in at once on Tuesday’s open. Each stockopened fast and strong, topped out around mid-day, faded hard into theclose, and violated stops today. The opens were so strong that I didnot even get a chance to think about executing on any of these stocks(I tend to avoid executing trades within the first 30-60 minutes of theday, and I LOATHE chasing anything). Uptrends remain intact, but lowersupport lines are bound to get tested on the more speculative names(like YGE falling to its 50DMA). It now seems even more likely thatEvergreen Solar’s (ESLR’s) late arrival to the solar rally signaled theconclusion of this latest run. It is now FSLR’s turn to leadagain…downward.

Be careful out there!
